The need for observable and measurable outcomes in dementia care, especially in the areas of competency, sensitivity, empathy, dignity and respect, is imperative. The Dementia Aware Competency Evaluation (DACE) is designed to meet that need. Based on 30 years of research, this approach can be used in any care-giving setting and as a benchmark of caregiver performance over time.
